Chapter 6176 Uncrowned King
As she talked, she seemed to have thought of the interesting pictures brought about by the interesting method. She couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips slightly, and smiled like the spring breeze in March blowing past her face.
Yang Yongqing stared at Yang Ruoqing blankly, his previously agitated mood calmed down inexplicably, and he suddenly began to look forward to that kind of interesting punishment.
In Lijiacun, Yang Huazhong and his party went straight to the house of the chamber pot man.
Lijia Village is very large, with a population no less than that of Changping Village. The two villages have more intermarriages than the other villages, so no news can be kept secret between the two villages.
The chamber pot man's house is at the very back of Lijia Village. When the windows at the back are pushed open, the branches from the woods behind can reach into the house. It is a simple adobe and thatched hut, built with stones half the height of a person.
Courtyard wall.
At this time, the yard was noisy, with people crying and cursing, and dogs barking. Countless torches illuminated this usually inconspicuous little yard as bright as day. In the middle of the night, most of the people in the village
But they all gather here.
If the wild beasts in the mountains behind the village want to sneak into the village at night and steal some poultry and livestock, they will probably be scared to death when they see this battle!
As soon as Yang Huazhong, Yang Ruoqing and his entourage arrived, sharp-eyed villagers noticed them, and soon the sound of cursing was heard in the house.
The cursing in the room suddenly stopped, and Li Jia, who was in Lijia Village, and several village elders quickly separated from the onlookers and rushed to the yard.
"Yang Lizheng, Mrs. Luo!"
Li Jia came up to him. It was clear that his status was the same as Yang Huazhong's, and they were both upright men in the village. But at this moment, he did not have the confidence to straighten up in front of Yang Huazhong.
Even the village elders who were following behind him, who were usually highly respected in the village, were all bowing down at this moment, with a look of shame on their faces.
The identity behind the other party is only secondary. No matter how high-ranking you are outside, you can't be too showy in front of the folks.
The main reason why Li Jia and several village elders felt ashamed was because this evil scum appeared in their village, and their former dignity and confidence were instantly reduced to zero.
"Li Lizheng, where is he?"
"In the hall, several uncles and I were scolding Shun just now, but we were so angry!" Li Jia shook his head and said.
Standing behind him was a village elder with a slightly protruding chin and a black tumor on his mouth. He raised his hand and made a gesture, saying angrily: "If they hadn't stopped me, I would have almost chopped off that dog's head with a knife!
"
Yang Huazhong also looked gloomy and said to Li Jia and several village elders: "Go in and take a look first."
"Okay, please come this way."
Li Jia quickly stretched out his hand to make way for the villagers watching the excitement behind him.
Yang Huazhong and his party entered the main room.
Yang Huazhong and Li Jia walked in front, and brothers Yang Yongzhi and Yang Yongqing followed side by side. Yang Ruoqing walked behind them, scanning everything around them, and followed Liu Xueyun half a step away.
Behind them are several village elders from Lijia Village.
Many villagers who were watching the fun also wanted to squeeze into the house, but the village elder with the black tumor on his mouth sternly scolded them and left. They could only wait at the door of the house and whisper in the yard.
"It seems that this old man with black tumors has quite a high prestige in Lijia Village. Li Jia could not make the villagers regress before, but this old man did it with just a roar."
Yang Ruoqing secretly thought to herself, there are several such people in every village.
Some of them are the 'uncrowned kings' of the village who stand behind the younger generation Li Zheng, and some are the kind who failed to covet the position of Li Zheng, but have accumulated prestige in the village. The newly appointed Li Zheng has to give him a lot of money.
To save face, I usually have to point out all the big and small things in the village.
Changping Village also has one, but Yang Huazhong’s character is more tolerant and tolerant, and he has won the appreciation and support of several village elders. Therefore, even if there are one or two discordant voices, there is basically no need for Yang Huazhong to come forward. Several other villagers
I can help him suppress it privately.
In addition, there is one biggest reason why Yang Huazhong did a better job than his predecessor Wang Hongtao.
That is Yang Huazhong has the ability to make money.
Yang Ruoqing has Jinshan Bank here, and she originally helped her father become a lizheng just to find a job for him to enrich his life, so Yang Huazhong's position as a lizheng is well deserved.
"Yang Lizheng, this is that beast!"
Li Jia's voice interrupted Yang Ruoqing's thoughts that were about to drift away. She looked forward in the direction of everyone. There was hardly any decent furniture in the four-walled hall. Even the dining table was next to the wall and there were only three tables.
The other leg is built with stones.
The only teapot and two teacups in the house, which were probably the only ones in the house, were thrown to the ground by the furious Li Jia and others. Among the debris on the ground, the chamber pot guy with a bruised nose and swollen face had his hands tied behind his back, and was pinned down on his shoulders by a middle-aged man, kneeling on the ground, drooping.
Hold your head.
Seeing Yang Huazhong and others approaching, the man in charge of custody raised his head and nodded towards Yang Huazhong as a greeting.
Li Jia hurriedly introduced to Yang Huazhong and his party: "His name is Li Yi, and I am his younger brother. The chamber pot man was very dishonest when he was caught earlier. I was afraid that he would escape, so I asked my brother and my nephew to watch."
When he mentioned his nephew, the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy standing a few steps behind Li Yi also smiled at Yang Huazhong with a slightly reserved smile.
After Yang Huazhong glanced around Li Yi and his son, he nodded in response, and his eyes returned to the chamber pot guy.
"I just heard that someone had been arrested, and we rushed over immediately. We didn't ask in detail what the situation was. Li Lizheng, come and give us a good talk!" Yang Huazhong asked loudly.
Li Jia nodded, cleared his throat, walked forward, pointed at the kneeling chamber pot man and loudly told everyone: "As agreed before, I will immediately find the chamber pot man when I return to the village this afternoon and ask for it.
He arranged the things at hand and set off early tomorrow morning to go to Wanghai County to do some work, but this old boy tried to shirk his duties in every possible way, but he just wasn’t willing to do it!"
"Although I reluctantly agreed in the end, I still looked very unhappy..."
"Li Lizheng, don't talk about his emotions, we want to hear how you caught him!" Yang Yongqing asked loudly in the crowd.
How to catch it?
Li Jia turned his eyes and quickly scanned Liu Xueyun in the crowd, but he kept in mind his previous agreement not to reveal Liu Xueyun.
Li Jia understood that the identities of Liu Xueyun and the pair of people under him who came and went without a trace must be related to Mrs. Luo, but the other party did not want to reveal their identities and wanted to give Li Jia the credit for this matter. Li Jia felt that
Quite happy too.
